Chapter 22: Pregnant

Yuan Luo almost couldn't react. Didn't Liu Cairen suffer from depression and commit suicide by throwing water into it? My own traitorous concubine is also carrying a scapegoat, how can she become a dead body with two lives.
First of all, it is absolutely impossible for Liu Cairen to be the emperor when he is pregnant. Even if Zhang Guan and these people don’t know that the emperor is not good in one aspect, they all know that the imperial concubine and empress are in control of the harem, and other concubines have no chance to connect to the emperor. Let alone Cheng Chong.
In this way, where did Liu Cairen come from when he was pregnant?
The concubine commits adultery with a foreigner, but it is the crime of the Nine Clan. Even if Yuan Luo, the imperial concubine who controls the harem, had fancyed the piano master before, he used the name of summoning to teach the piano and molested two of them, but did not really do it to the last step.
And there are some things that the high-ranking authority commits, which can be covered up, and the oppressed people do it. That is a heinous crime.
Lian Yanqiu whispered: "The minister has ordered someone to urgently lock up a group of palace servants around Liu Cairen, among them the personal palace lady confessed one thing."
Lian Yanqiu's work efficiency is extremely high, and the court lady who confessed has been taken to the Zichen Palace.
"Manny, our little lord has been wronged! Since entering the palace, the little lord has abided by the rules, is gracious and courteous, and has never done anything like that. Our little lord is forced."
The little palace lady sobbed and told a frantic thing.
When it first entered winter, it coincided with the first snowfall in the capital, and the night was clear. Liu Cairen is a graceful and talented woman. On a whim, she took her personal palace maid to walk on the moon and enjoy the snow in the plum forest in the back garden.
After strolling in the woods for a while, Liu Cairen's small heater cooled down, so the little palace lady took it back to change charcoal, and she stayed alone in the woods to chant poems.
The little palace lady went back to replace the charcoal fire and returned to the forest, but Liu Cairen's trace was gone. After searching for a long time, she saw the master's figure beside a dilapidated pavilion in the forest.
Liu Cairen was lying in front of the steps, his face was bruised, his clothes were torn, his skin was half exposed, and his smooth thighs were stained with blood, which made people know what was happening at a glance.
The little palace lady was horrified, and quickly returned the dying Liu Cairen to her bedroom.
Fortunately, it was getting late, the Beigong was sparsely populated, and no one was discovered all the way.
After that, Liu Cai was seriously ill, and he did not dare to explain the truth to the emperor, so he could only be treated according to the cold, and he could not get out of bed for half a month.
The days passed. Seeing this thing quietly, Liu Cairen's body gradually improved. However, just a few days ago, he suddenly began to vomit, vomiting whatever he ate, no matter what the concubine's gift, Still like porridge dishes. There are elders in Liu Cai’s family who are medical officers. They are familiar with some medical skills and know this state. They are suddenly thundered in the sky and desperate.
Waiting for the evil in the abdomen to grow bigger and bigger, things will be incapable of hiding, and the family will be bound to be hurt by that time. Liu Cairen is so cruel, he simply dives into suicide. In order to prevent his pregnancy from being exposed, he deliberately took advantage of the opportunity of the little eunuch's tea to leave the palace before he died, and asked him to bring his belongings home, creating the appearance of a slave-killer.
Because she was pushed into the lake and killed by a slave, the evidence is conclusive, and Hao Zuo would not examine her body carefully. In the case of suicide, the body will be examined very carefully in order to eliminate the poisoning of the servants and other reasons.
From this perspective, Liu Cairen is also cruel enough. In order to preserve his reputation and his family, he buckled the black pot on his loyal slaves.
It's a pity that she is a deep-bowed girl who is not so meticulous after all. Yuan Luo and the others have seen the flaws. In order to close the case, Director Zhang ordered someone to examine Liu Cairen's body in detail, and she found something wrong.
"According to you, Liu Cairen got pregnant this time because he was raped." Yuan Luo asked with a frown.
The little palace lady cried and said: "Please give me a lesson from the lady, the slave and maidservant did not say a word of falsehood."
"My palace doesn't even know, the chaos in this palace has reached this point."
Lian Yanqiu lowered his head: "The mother calmed down her anger."
Yuan Luo sneered: "Since ancient times, the palace has heard about the country's death, only when the thieves and power ministers messed up the harem and forced the concubine to force the concubine. I didn't expect my Dayu to have come this far."
Except for Lian Yanqiu, all the palace people knelt down, and everyone was panicked. This incident was indeed unheard of in the past.
From a political point of view, in the harem is worse than adultery. Adultery is just the sin of adulterers and women, plus the people around them at most. But the concubine in the deep palace was abused and humiliated for no reason, but it was a vicious case, and the following crimes were committed.
Lian Yanqiu persuaded: "The mother calmed down her anger, this matter is too much, it is better to call in the guards of the imperial army and strictly investigate."
Yuan Luo glanced at him and knew that at this time, summoning the commander of the guards of the Forbidden Army had two meanings, one was to blame for negligence, and the second was to question the sinner.
The palace is heavily guarded, and it is impossible for a foreigner to sneak in and commit crimes, and the men in the palace who have this condition to commit crimes are guards except for the imperial doctor. There are always records of visits at night at the Imperial Medical Office, and it is impossible to run in casually to and defile the imperial concubine. So the culprit of this incident, almost certainly, must be among the guards.
auzw.comYuan Luo's face was deep, "Pass Miao Zifang and Wei Xilai."
The defense of the palace has always been the division of labor between Jingoi and Tianwuwei within the Forbidden Army.
Jin Wuwei is Dayu's veteran imperial army. Fifty thousand elite guards the safety of the capital.
Compared with Tianwuwei, his foundation is much shallower. When Emperor Xianning was reigning, he focused on suppressing the family of clans and promoting the unfamiliar forces. Jinwuwei was intricately intertwined, and he didn't get rid of it. He simply opened a martial arts exercise and established a new army, which is Tianwuwei. All of them were newly promoted poor students. Gu Liangyong used to be the commander of Tianwuwei before guarding the north. Today's Miao Zifang is also a leader among the rising stars.
Yuan Luo originally thought that Miao Zifang was young enough to be a third-rank general at the age of 26 or 27. After seeing Jin Wuwei commander Wei Xi, he knew what young and promising is.
Wei Xi's appearance was at most twenty or so, she was born very outstanding, with thin lips, phoenix eyes and a handsome figure, and her eyes were brilliant. Even when she was not smiling, her eyebrows naturally carried a beautiful smile. It is the image of Dayu's most sought-after family noble son.
In front of Yuan Luo, the noble concubine in power, Wei Xi was polite, but his indifferent eyes showed that he was not too respectful in his heart. After all, they are the real brother of Queen Wei, the first-born son of Prime Minister Wei, and he is very confident.
After the two arrived, Yuan Luo didn't delay any time, and ordered Yanqiu to tell the story exactly.
The two understood the whole story, and their faces turned green.
Yuan Luo looked amused at the same expressions of the two, as well as evasive words.
Almost the first time Lian Yanqiu finished speaking, the two men bowed together and said, "Niang Niang Mingjian, my Jinwuwei (Tianwuwei) army is strictly disciplined, and there is absolutely no way for this villain."
Yuan Luo put aside the tea cup and said coldly: "The palace also originally intended to believe that the guards of the imperial army are clean and self-conscious. However, if the guards are not doing evil, then there can only be a villain outside the palace sneaking in."
The two of them turned dark again, and the charge of negligence was as bad as, or even worse, that of a lewd person in the team. Today, the villain outside the palace can sneak into the palace and the concubines. Wouldn't it be logical to assassinate the emperor tomorrow?
"My palace does not want to hear the words of meritorious deeds, but only wants to hear the truth and results. I wonder if the two generals will be able to bring this villain to justice within a few days."
There was silence in the hall.
Miao Zifang first knelt down and said: "Niang Niang Mingjian, can you ask Liu Cairen's court lady to tell you the story and details of the incident."
Several court ladies around Liu Cairen, Lian Yanqiu, had already interrogated in detail. When they were brought in at this time, Miao Zifang and Wei Xi were not welcome and asked several key questions continuously, including details such as the time and place of the incident.
Finally, Wei Xi asked: "You have been serving the master in the past few months, but you have heard her mention only a few words at the time."
The little palace ladies fell into silence, all of them looked terrified. In fact, apart from the hapless person who served personally that night, it was the first time that the others knew about this.
Wei Xi said with a cold face: "Whoever can remember a few clues can spare her life."
The few little palace ladies originally thought that they were bound to die if they were involved in the secrets of such palaces. Hearing these words, it is like grabbing a straw, encouraging to cheer up, and trying to remember.
Yuan Luo's face darkened behind. Although she didn't want the lives of these people in the first place, Wei Xi's attitude was too rampant. The handling of these palace ladies was the internal affairs of the palace. When would it be a foreign minister's turn to have this Right now. Wei Xi looked like it was taken for granted. To him, the few little palace ladies in front of him were just ants-like things, and they could only be killed in a single thought.
One of the little palace ladies thought for a while, and suddenly said: "The little master once drew a portrait. It was two months ago. When I was bringing tea to the little master, I saw her at the desk and painting. It seemed that she was a strange man. "
portrait! Several people were surprised and delighted, if they had this thing, it would be easy to track down.
"Where is the portrait?"
"It has been burned by the little master. The slave and maid went in for the second time and saw the little master leaning on the side of the fire and burning things."
Wei Xi's eyebrows twitched slightly: "Then do you remember the person in the painting?"
"The slave and maid did not see clearly, only vaguely remembered that he was a young boy, very good-looking." The little palace lady trembled. It was already two months ago. Even if she saw a real person, she would have forgotten it, let alone shocked. Portrait of Hong Yi Glimpse.
Very good-looking young man!
Wei Xi narrowed his eyes.
Seeing that there would be no progress after asking, Yuan Luo said, "My palace will give you three days. After three days, I hope it will be clear."
Then ordered the two to retreat.
